Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

Chapter 1122: A Talk With An Old Dragon 1



When Violet finally woke up, finding herself within a Realm of Endless Shadows, the first thing she thought was that she had died and was in the Underworld, where the Goddess of Death Hel governed.

It added to it that there were even Undead around, skeletons, zombies, and even a group of strange people, led by an old man with a long beard. She thought that they had died young with their old master, pitying them.

However, the more "alive" she felt, the more she realized that she wasn't actually dead. In fact, she had gone through an almost dead-like experience already. Her body was taken away, her soul was almost completely eaten, fused with that of a wicked vampire.

But right now, she was not dead, and as the memories of her past kept coming and going, mixing with the memories of the present, she quickly realized that she had been revived, somehow.

The tenderness she felt as she was being healed back to normal, even her head, which had been gone for so long, her brain, everything. Even her soul was restored to full, no longer mixed, fused with a disgusting old vampire, not even memories of his own mind remained within hers.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Hahh... I-I'm alive... After so long?"

She started crying, realizing how lucky, yet unlucky she has been. Everything is probably already gone; it has been thousands of years after all.

But who, who did this to her? Who healed her?

It didn't take too long for them to appear in front of her, alongside someone she would instantly recognize.

A beautiful woman with long, silvery-white hair, sharp red eyes, and skin as pale as candlewax, wearing a black dress and a black hat, her appearance seemed intimidating, she had never seen a human like her before.

And the other, the other resembled a Majin of some sort, with long white hair, pale blue eyes, black horns growing across his head and then his neck, long wings, black and dark blue scales on his arms and legs, and sharp claws, wearing a rather fancy-looking suit.

For a moment she didn't knew who he was, but his presence alone, and his scent, she immediately recognized him after that!

"She's awake, it seems! Finally," sighed the woman. "Name's Maria, and this is Lucifer... Actually, maybe you recognize him already?"

"M-Maria...?" Violet muttered. "Lu... Lucifer?!"

"Violet..." sighed Lucifer, looking at her with an expression full of sorrow, but also with a faint smile. "I'm glad to see you alive... Even after everything."

FLASH!

Black lightning erupted from his body as he quickly transformed, showing his draconic appearance to Violet in front of him.

Without a doubt, he was the dragon her sister had chosen as a mate, the father of her sister's children, the prideful Dragon King of the Fire Dragon Tribe of Midgard!

"It's really you, you bastard!"

Violet started crying, running towards his giant, draconic form.

It had changed a lot actually, too much perhaps.

But the base appearance he had before dying remained, now further evolved, given a more monstrous and at the same time lugubrious, phantasmal form.

Yet it was all the same!

Violet hugged Lucifer, licking his entire face as Lucifer accepted her love, she would rarely ever do this.

But after thousands of years, she still loved him as her brother-in-law, and would happily lick his entire face after feeling so lonely.

"Ugh, Violet, stop licking me- Agh!" Lucifer complained. "M-Maria, help me!"

Maria giggled as she saw violet licking and biting Lucifer's entirely.

It was the first time she was seeing how dragons showed affection to family members.

They groomed each other's scales as both a gesture of love and appreciation and also as a way to trust each other.

"So cute! Lick her back too, Lucifer! I know it's nothing romantic, relax."

"F-Fine..."

Lucifer had grown accustomed to human customs, so he had forgotten about this little ritual they did, he hugged Violet back, giving her the warmth and love she was missing for so long.

He licked her face, cleansed her neck scales with gentle bites, and made her feel better and happier.

"Calm down Violet, I am not going anywhere... It has been a long time, I'm happy to see you, sister-in-law," he smiled.

"Me too, Lucifer..." she kept crying. "I never thought I would be so happy to see your dumb face... But you're perhaps the only left, isn't it?"

"..." Lucifer remained in silence for a brief moment. "N-Not everyone, my sister is also alive. And... there's a child that survived too."

"W-What?!" Violet gasped. "Truly?! So not everyone is gone... Brunhild is alive! And... the other children and Crystal... They aren't?"

Lucifer didn't answer, Maria also remained in silence.

Violet could guess what had happened.

"I-I see..." she sighed. "I had cried so much knowing full well I could wake up to a future without them... I think my tears are all completely dry by now, but even then... It hurts so

much..."

Violet lowered her head, despite her words, more tears came from her big eyes.

Lucifer comforted her, hugging her and caressing her head.

"It has been a very long time since you were last conscious, Violet."

Maria walked towards her.

"Nice to meet you... Err, I am Lucifer's... How should I say it?"

"You're his new mate? I know, you have his scent all over your body."

"Eh?! Ah... Oh well, yeah, that... I thought it would upset you."

"Not at all... It has been thousands of years, Lucifer died too, didn't he? His Aura... he feels like he's between life and death, strange. Also the two of you... you're full of divine power."

"Yes, it's a long story..." Lucifer nodded. "Maria there, she revived me, well, she raised me as an Undead. When I died in the war, my body slowly rotted and was filled with miasma,

forming a dungeon where I was sealed inside."

"Uh-huh..." Violet nodded, as she heard their entire story while sitting down and eating

roasted meat and water that Maria brought to her.

They had a long conversation to catch up, and for the first time, old Violet was able to smile,

even if a little bit.

Especially when she heard about the little princess, Nyx.
